[SOLVED] : UltraEdit shell context handler no show in Win 10

Post by iycgtptyarvg »

I moved to Win 10 x64 last week, and I noticed that the shell context handler of UltraEdit doesn't work anymore (on Win 7 x64 it works fine).

Windows Explorer shows the menu correctly for every file.
Also, other handlers like those from 7-Zip and XnView work fine.

Does anyone with UltraEdit have the shell context menu working? (not sure it matters, but I've installed the 32-bit version of UltraEdit).

Edit:
I just installed the 64-bit version. Windows Explorer still works, XYplorer still fails. :cry:

UEdit x86 22.20.0.49 on Windows 10 Enterprise x64 with XYplorer v16.20.0003
-> Context menu contains "UltraEdit" and works fine...

So, when you right mouse click on ANY file (even non-associated with UltraEdit), you get the UltraEdit menu option to open that file with UltraEdit?

If so, could you try my ini file to see whether it's as settings problem?

Works with your config file as well... (and I didn't associate any filetype within UEdit)

Is this an upgrade install of Win 10?

I hope you ticked this:
Configuration > Shell Integration > 64-bit Windows > Show the 64-bit context menu

UEdit on a x64 OS installs a 32bit context menu handler so the context menu entry is visible in both menu "versions" of XY

On which Win 10 version are you, iycgtptyarvg (TH1 (Build 10240) | TH2 (Build 10586)) or a former version?

I tried both the x86 menu and the x64 menu. Neither shows UltraEdit.

I'm on build 10586 of Windows 10 x64.

With all available updates from Microsoft?

I'll test it later with that constellation, too...

When I use ProcessMonitor I get this output for XYplorer regarding the UltraEdit context handler:

TH2 (Enterprise x64) with all current updates:

Everything works fine, too...

So either your installation of UEdit went wrong (for whatever reason) or your OS installation is borked...

Thanks for your help. Could you attempt one more thing?
Use ProcessMonitor to check what your result is when clicking the right mouse button on a file?

As you can see, XYplorer DOES get the registry keys for the UltraEdit context handler, but then doesn't use them some how(?).

This is what Windows Explorer give me:

Currently no time to work with Process Monitor.

It's a 64-bit dll (ue64ctmn.dll), why should XY (which is 32-bit only) try to use that (when the 32-bit context menu is invoked)?

Well, yes. That's why I need someone (anyone with UltraEdit) to do a ProcessMonitor log to see whether there is a difference.
I'm guessing people with working context menus will have those lines with 32-bit registry queries.

They won't get entries for that 64 bit dll.

But what they should get is for Path (because of redirection):
HKCU\Software\Classes\WOW6432Node\CLSID\{key}\InProcServer32\(Default)

and something like:
C:\Program Files (x86)\IDM Computer Solutions\UltraEdit\ue32ctmn.dll

at least if it's installed with standard settings
